    Of course it's allowed, but there seems to have been (not just you) a totally disproportionate reaction to this one defeat.
    Did you genuinely believe we weren't going to lose another game this season?
    Do you think Wigan and Shrewsbury won't?

    Panic !!!???

    I can see our boardroom now with Messrs; Corporal Jones, Private Fraser and Team Scooby Do as advisors!

    Seriously though, yes quite right IF we failed to achieve promtion this year would it be less than good news ? For sure, it doesn't take rocket science.
    However, do I ( or anyone on these pages) , know for sure what Venkys plans and next move are to be . I've personally not got a Scooby Do?

    Therefore, let's just let fate pan itself out and what will be will be.
    Is TM going to prove you wrong (see above) ?
    Is TM going prove you right (again see above) ?
    Do I support and wish him well in his quest ? For sure.

    Of course saxo as long as you are willing to praise when he has done something correctly
    Going back though I am afraid saxo is correct about if we don't go up
    Venkys have listened and invested in promotion if this isn't the case a financial strip down could be in order
    I remain hopeful we can achieve promotion the big test will be how we react to this defeat.

    Heres a few comments from some of our fans today about Conor Mahoney, and they are mixed to be honest. I think he was signed as a bit part player to begin with, but he might get a new bigger chance under our new coach.


    " One of the most unfit players I’ve ever seen. Both Isgrove and Hammill would be better off the bench. The only change I’d make Tuesday is Isgrove on the bench over Mahoney. "

    " Mahoney has barely played for 8 months. Sure he’ll get up to championship match fitness quick enough. Every player will need to play a part if we are to stay up. "

    There were some question-marks over his attitude, Acido, but I always take those rumours with a pinch of salt. Often a touch of sour grapes involved when a player leaves.
    Anyway, fitness and match-sharpness are two different things. Early days, really.
    Good win for you, in any case.

    I've heard it suggested he felt he was good enough to break into Bournemouth's team, and not have to earn his way in the game in league one with rovers.

    I felt he'd made a mistake at the time, and I still do. Not all his fault though, as he's been poorly advised.

    Yes it was Aucky, a cracking win for us today away at an admittedly awful Brummingham team.
    Conor was only signed for us on the short term I reckon, and I think he will only be a sub in every game.

    You know that new manager/coach thing where a team go on a good run ?. Well we've got a new coach of course and fingers crossed, that today wont just be a flash in the pan.

    The kid who's gone to Leicester has made a similar error IMO.
